Marketing Your Property
Rent Choice will only be able to offer your property to the market if we have a signed management authority, We offer a three month satisfaction guarantee for your peace of mind.
Cancellation
In the event that the management authority is terminated, Rent Choice will hand back the property without charging any penalties or exit fees.
For avoidance of doubt, the three months is calculated as at the date of signing the agreement to the same date less one day, three months later.
Any fees received by Rent Choice during the three month period for services completed will not be refunded (for example: leasing fees, inspection fees etc.)
On expiry of the three month guarantee period, the landlord will waive the benefit to the guarantee and all other conditions of the management agreement will stay intact.
The management agreement must be entered into in good faith and be for a minimum term of 36 months.
